Harrison,

I am at a deadend. My old surgeon's office in San Diego area said they are just starting a Wallis trial against prodisc and charite.

I don't understand it. I look at spine-health.com and it says they had a 1 and 2 level trial but it's no longer enrolling new patients.

When I ask the research contact at the surgeon's office, he offers no explanation just says they have a one level wallis trial and that's it. ARGHHHHH

This is reminiscient of back when prodisc was closed but somehow some people were still getting in but I was not making any progress with my dr's office
